    • Sitting again Saturday
      Hoerner (hand) isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds.

      Advice: Hoerner sat out Friday's game after getting hit in the hand by a pitch Thursday, and the issue seems to still be bothering him ahead of Saturday's contest. David Bote will start at second base and bat seventh while Hoerner recovers. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago

    • Nico Hoerner remains out Saturday with hand issue
      Nico Hoerner (hand) remains out of the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Reds.

      Advice: Additional X-rays on Hoerner’s hand were reportedly inconclusive on Friday after he had trouble gripping and swinging a bat. The 27-year-old was hit by a pitch during Thursday’s series opener and will sit out his second straight contest on Saturday afternoon. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment, but it wouldn’t be a total shock to see him land on the injured list at some point this weekend. Rotoworld 49 minutes ago

    • Sitting again Saturday
      Seager (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Giants.

      Advice: Seager will sit for a second straight game after injuring his left hamstring Wednesday against the Tigers. Like Friday, Seager will be available to pinch hit Saturday, per Jeff Wilson of RangersToday.com. Josh Smith will shift over to shortstop while Ezequiel Duran gets the start at third base against Giants right-hander Spencer Howard. Rotowire.com Today, 9:42 am

    • Corey Seager out Saturday due to hamstring injury
      Corey Seager (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Saturday’s showdown against the Giants.

      Advice: The encouraging news here for fantasy managers is that Seager hasn’t landed on the injured list yet after suffering a mild left hamstring injury earlier this week. The 30-year-old fantasy stalwart will miss his second straight contest on Saturday afternoon and remains day-to-day for now. There should be some clarity on his status at some point later this weekend if he’s unable to get back in the lineup. Rotoworld Today, 9:41 am

    • Notches 13th save
      Bednar earned the save in Friday's 3-0 win over the Twins, allowing one hit while logging a strikeout in a scoreless ninth inning.

      Advice: Bednar worked around a Byron Buxton one-out single to close out Pittsburgh's shutout victory, earning his 13th save this season. Bednar extended his scoreless inning streak to nine -- he's allowed just five hits and one walk in that span. Overall, the 29-year-old right-hander sports a 5.47 ERA with a 1.18 WHIP and 26:6 K:BB across 26.1 innings this season. Rotowire.com Today, 8:34 am
       
    • IL stint not expected
      Texas manager Bruce Bochy said Seager (hamstring) is not expected to require a stint on the injured list, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Seager injured his hamstring Wednesday and sat out Friday's game after Thursday's off-day. Bochy doesn't anticipate an IL stint, but Seager might need a couple of days to get back to the field. Rotowire.com Today, 6:25 am

    • Alex Bregman reaches three times Friday in return
      Alex Bregman went 2-for-4 with a walk on Friday in his return to the Astros’ lineup.

      Advice: Bregman didn’t skip a beat, reaching base safely in three of his five plate appearances following a brief one-game absence due to left hand soreness. The 30-year-old impending free agent seems like he’ll be good to go moving forward without any lingering concerns. Rotoworld Today, 4:22 am
       
    • Brandon Pfaadt wears it on Friday vs. Padres
      Brandon Pfaadt was lit up for five runs over 5 1/3 innings on Friday in a loss to the Padres.

      Advice: Pfaadt, who allowed nine hits (including three home runs) and teammate Humberto Castellanos were each tagged for five runs as they soaked up nearly a complete game to spare Arizona’s overworked bullpen, which frankly needed a break after some heavy usage earlier this week. He struck out five and only handed out one free pass. He’ll bring an inflated 4.60 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 76/15 K/BB ratio across 78 1/3 innings (13 starts) into tasty matchup on Thursday against the Angels at Chase Field. Rotoworld Today, 3:18 am
       
    • Not slowed by brief absence
      Bregman went 2-for-4 with a walk and a run scored Friday against the Angels.

      Advice: Bregman returned to the lineup after a one-contest absence caused by a hand injury. He extended his hitting streak to nine games in his return Friday, and he's gone 14-for-35 with five homers, eight RBI and 10 runs scored in that span. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:48 pm
